#NetNeutrality Creative Filing to the Federal Communications Commission (2014) https://mediajustice.org/resource/netneutrality-creative-filing-to-the-federal-communications-commission-2014/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=netneutrality-creative-filing-to-the-federal-communications-commission-2014 Sat, 11 Oct 2014 18:41:00 +0000 https://mediajustice.org/?post_type=resource&p=15242 The MediaJustice Network (formerly Media Action Grassroots Network) believes the Open Internet plays a pivotal role in ensuring racial and economic equity in the 21st century. Without a strong legal framework that ensures the benefits of the Internet are broadly shared, our members are forced to navigate a platform that further entrenches and exacerbates harmful disparities. In 2014 we submitted a creative filing which included our #InternetHaiku and Instagram actions.

COVID-19 Lifeline Emergency Request https://mediajustice.org/resource/covid-19-lifeline-emergency-request/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=covid-19-lifeline-emergency-request Mon, 23 Mar 2020 13:55:15 +0000 https://mediajustice.org/?post_type=resource&p=15291 As the United States is facing an unprecedented emergency, with almost all Americans—old and young—required to work, learn, and function while staying at home, the need for connectivity across the country has never been greater. Internet and telephone access are extremely urgent at this time as families stay at home to protect public health and struggle to recreate their lives online. Existing disparities in communications access are only being exacerbated during this national emergency. We demand the FCC immediately take the swift action to adapt the Lifeline program to meet the COVID-19 crisis.
